    The guy at discount actually gave me the extra socket to use "which I destroyed".
    Plus, I got the tires from discounttiredirect.com and they still rotate and balance them for free. Even though it does take foreveerrrrrr......

    I've used Discount for a years now and mostly have been good to deal with. Only consistent problem they seem to have is filling my tires to like 60+ PSI due to the load rating rather than the weight of my truck but that's an easy fix. I became pretty well known with one of the managers at the one in Foco (before they tore that particular one down) so I always got good service because he knew what requests I had. One being for the employees not to treat my bumper like a jungle gym, which he always chewed them out if they did. And he also knew that I knew what I was talking about rather than most other employees talking down to women.

    I did learn though that they don't torque down the locking lug nuts. One of mine fell off so I went back to him and he was nice enough to order a whole new set of nice TRD ones for me free of charge, and always properly tightened them.

    Discount does good work like I said, it's the ever increasing wait time and basically being misled about wait times and supposed appointments. If not for that, I'd still be a customer. I used them exclusively for 24 years. They never used to be that bad, it's just been the last 3-4 years that they have the really long wait times.

    From what I have read from others on here I think this may be more of a problem in the FoCo stores alone.

    The problem is they are franchises so one store can be awesome and the other be shit.

    They opened up a Discount Tire a minute from my house.

    Never busy. Plus I have the ability to go during off hours. I can be in and out for a rotation in 10 mins tops.
